Listening to chirps and such on HF - this is what is decoded:
WeFAX image
Is it the best - god no... but that came from a 4kW transmitter down in Louisiana And if you stare at it long enough,.. you can figure most of it out.
How far away from you is that transmitter in Louisiana?
Between 600 and 700 miles.
I'm going to see if I can pick up Boston and California as well.. I mean - why not.

@gjacobse One of these days I hope to be back on HF. Alas, kids and other priorities, like renewing my companies wildcard SSL certificate and finding all the services using it!

I'm grateful for the time - sparse as it is - during the day to get it setup (at least for WeFAX) and let it sit and run... I don't talk much on HF,.. I spend more time on the digital modes than voice, and don't do any CW.

What's everyone's fav Linux Distro for desktop usage?
(Going to Dual boot my laptop)I'm loving Deepin right now. Not without a few odd issues.
Korora was nice. Firefox has a memory leak and they've not updated recently even though Fedora updated.
Gecko is nice.
Mint remains a really solid choice.
Straight Fedora and Tumbleweed are really good.

Just bought another Vultr instance to load Pi Hole
Nice! Keep in mind it runs great in a container as well.
Not many places offering containers.
All apps run in containers. Apps can't tell when they are virtualized or your virtualization is broken.

Using USB3?

In a dire pinch, I would still do this. Otherwise, I would just ship it out to a data recovery place and let them do what they're best at.

The real issue is how they got into this position, not that they do something crazy and desperate.
